Wholegrain Macaroni and Cheese with Cauliflower and Ham

" Hey folks, sorry it's been so long since I've made a post. I can't promise I will make one everyday, but I do want to get back in the habit of sharing with you the yummy dinner's I've had.  My hope is that you too will expand your dinner horizon's and try some new things in 2012.  I don't know about you, but sometimes I get tired of eating the same old things and I want to stretch myself to find the recipes that are creative, fun to make, delicious and are the healthier side."

"Below, is a recipe that I found at FitPregnancy.com. I'm not currently pregnant, however I have tried several recipes from this site and have found them to be all of the things that I have described above. (creative, fun to make, delicious and healthier) They are great for anyone no matter what stage you are in life."
"Last night, my husband and I ate the Wholegrain Macaroni and Cheese with Cauliflower and Ham.  It tasted great and incorporated grains, dairy, meat, and vegetables all in one. The link for this recipe is below.  The only recommendation that I would make is to maybe add a little hot sauce or chili powder to the recipe to just give it a little extra punch. My husband and I really like flavors that are little on the bolder side. So, I dipped mine in a little ketchup and he sprinkled his with a little hot sauce just to give it a little extra something.   I did not have shallots, so I just used a little onion instead.  The shallots may have also given the recipe a little extra flavor too. For those of you out there that are sticking to a Gluten Free Diet, I feel this recipe would work nicely with Gluten Free Whole Wheat Macaroni noodles as well."
